Background

The Boost Gauge allows a character to use a Boost Attack, a unique attack that can temporarily down an enemy and prevent it from using a special trait, with each character specializing in a different type of enemy. BG appears as a gauge on the bottom right side of a character's rhombus portrait in the bottom left corner of the screen, filling with a white line as the battle goes on. Character skills and equipment skills increase the gauge's fill rate, allowing more frequent Boost Attacks.
